Join the team as Twilio’s next Principal, Product Learning & Development

About the job

Twilio is the world’s leading customer engagement platform empowering developers to build modern communication applications and experiences designed to be trusted, simple and smart. Twilio is looking for a Principal, Product Learning & Development to bring our AI first PDLC vision to life and build the capability our product organization needs to deliver it.

Reporting to the Director of Product Strategy & Operations, this role owns how our PMs get better at their craft, and how they learn to do that craft with AI. You'll build the competency model and curriculum that define "how we do product here," then go beyond curriculum by designing and shipping the internal tooling (prompt libraries, agents, PRD generators) that makes a PM measurably faster and sharper. You'll bring our AI first PDLC vision to life, partnering with product and engineering leaders to find where AI genuinely changes the work, and coaching the org through the change.

Responsibilities

We are looking for a leader who brings product, learning, and hands on AI expertise to help:

• Design and deliver the PM Academy, covering onboarding and ongoing curriculum across PRD writing, discovery, prioritization, roadmapping, and stakeholder influence, each taught with AI in the workflow.
• Design and help build and facilitate adoption of "PM in a box": ship internal AI tooling such as prompt libraries, agents, and PRD and research generators, as products with users, feedback loops, and adoption targets.
• Bring the AI first PDLC vision to life and execute against it, partnering with Product leaders to map current workflows and identify the AI and automation opportunities worth pursuing.
• Run cohort programs for new PMs and newly promoted PM managers, and design tailored programming for different parts of the organization rather than one generic track.
• Curate the internal playbooks, templates, and documentation that carry "how we do product here," and keep them current as practice changes.
• Facilitate workshops, office hours, and 1:1 coaching for PMs and PM leaders, building the credibility to coach senior people.
• Drive AI adoption across the PM org through a champion network that surfaces use cases from inside each team.
• Measure impact against baselines captured before rollout.

Required: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, a related field or equivalent practical experience.
• 8+ years of experience across product management, consulting, program management, L&D or enablement
• Experience leading programs or product operations for B2B SaaS, PaaS or equivalent
• Outstanding written and verbal communication that drives executional impact at scale, distilling complex detail into an executive narrative, and explaining technical concepts to audiences without technical backgrounds.
• Strong facilitation, and the ability to build trust and exchange ideas across organizational boundaries in service of a broader goal.
• Excellent problem solving and organizational skills.
• Ability to thrive in a fast paced, evolving, ambiguous environment, with a default to action in order to adapt quickly to changing priorities and requirements.
